“Ride Captain Ride” #4 7/11/1970

Another one-hit wonder, Blues Image started out in Tampa and soon moved on to Miami’s club scene. The first line supposedly came from the 73 keys on a Fender Rhodes electric piano, heard in the intro. Co-writer/lead vocalist Mike Pinera played the screaming lead guitar at the end. Pinera left the band just after this was recorded. The group broke up after their next LP.
